Sommario breve
This study will examine how the use of antidepressant, physical therapy, and combination of both affects pain, function, and depression outcomes in chronic low back pain patients.
Descrizione dettagliata
Approximately 20 million Americans are affected by chronic low back pain and negative affective states such as depression and anxiety. These negative states have all been associated with higher pain intensity, lower pain tolerance, greater use of pain medication, poor pain treatment responses, and higher levels of psychiatric comorbidity among low back pain patients. To improve these outcomes for those who suffer from low back pain, it is important to implement multiple methods with a focus in treating negative affect for pain management rather than using opioids alone.
Antidepressant (AD) and fear avoidance-based physical therapy (EFAR) have individually shown to be promising methods for pain management. In this study, AD, EFAR, and the combination therapy of the two treatments will be explored and implemented to investigate their effectiveness in improving pain, function, depression, and anxiety. The key innovation is testing a new and effective multimodal treatment that can help manage pain, as well as address negative affect.

SperimentaleAntidepressant (AD) Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive the antidepressant medication for 4 months under the care of a nurse practitioner and psychiatrist, in addition to their current opioid prescription and weaning guidelines, if applicable. Dosage change and side effects are mitigated by check-in visits (virtually or in-person) every 4 weeks. Non-responders determined at the end of 4 months will be re-randomized to continue receiving AD or EFAR for another 4 months. | Antidepressant The antidepressant treatment utilizes antidepressant medication to improve pain, function, and depression outcomes.
The Antidepressant Treatment History Form (ATHF) will be used to assess adequacy of any prior antidepressant medication treatment and to assist the decision regarding which antidepressant to start. A medication flowchart will help serve as a guideline throughout the drug selection and dosing determination. Weekly assessments completed by subjects will help determine response, tolerability, and necessity for dose adjustment or medication change. |
SperimentaleEnhanced Fear Avoidance Rehabilitation (EFAR) Subjects will be randomly assigned to receive 8 1-hour physical therapy sessions, pain education, and motivational messaging via Vivify app for 4 months, in addition to their current opioid prescription and weaning guidelines, if applicable. Trained physical/occupational therapists will determine the activities as part of the treatment. Non-responders determined at the end of 4 months will be re-randomized to continue receiving EFAR or AD for another 4 months. | Enhanced Fear Avoidance Rehabilitation The EFAR treatment utilizes physical therapy, pain education, and motivational messaging to improve pain, function, and depression outcomes. Subjects will engage in gradual exposure to exercises and activities they are apprehensive about, such as standing to wash dishes. |
SperimentaleAntidepressant (AD) + Enhanced Fear Avoidance Rehabilitation (EFAR) Subjects will receive a combination of antidepressant medication and physical therapy for 8 months, in addition to their current opioid prescription and weaning guidelines, if applicable. No re-randomization will be done in this treatment group. | Antidepressant The antidepressant treatment utilizes antidepressant medication to improve pain, function, and depression outcomes.
